Full details

FAQs

Are these tools made for professional use?

Yes, the Expert By Facom range is designed to meet the rigors of professional workshop environments.

Does this set include both metric and imperial sizes?

Yes, the 126-piece collection includes both metric and imperial 6-point sockets.

Are the sockets 6-point or 12-point?

These sockets feature a 6-point design, which provides better surface contact and reduces the chance of stripping bolt heads.

How do I clean the tools if they get oily?

Use a degreaser or a clean shop rag to wipe them down, then ensure they are completely dry before returning them to the case.

Can I replace individual pieces if I lose one?

As a standard professional set, individual sockets and accessories of these drive sizes are generally available through industrial tool suppliers.

Is this set suitable for automotive repair?

Absolutely; the combination of deep sockets, extensions, and various drive sizes makes it highly effective for standard automotive maintenance tasks.

Troubleshooting

Ratchet mechanism feels stiff or 'gritty'

Clear any debris from the head and apply a small amount of high-quality machine oil to the gear mechanism.

Socket won't stay attached to the drive

Check the detent ball on the ratchet square drive for signs of sticking or dirt buildup; clean and depress manually to loosen.

Tools are loose inside the case

Ensure all tools are snapped firmly into their molded positions; if a slot is damaged, use a small piece of high-density foam to hold the tool in place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extensive variety of socket sizes and types
  • High-quality construction suitable for professional use
  • Includes essential hand tools like screwdrivers and wrenches
  • 6-point socket design reduces fastener rounding
  • Well-organized case keeps tools secure and accessible

  • Heavy weight due to the high piece count
  • Large footprint in a workspace compared to smaller sets
  • Plastic case hinges may wear over time with heavy daily use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Expert By Facom tool set, always wipe tools down with a clean, dry cloth after use to remove grease and debris, which can lead to corrosion. Store the set in a dry environment and ensure each tool is clicked back into its designated molded slot within the case to prevent loss. Periodically check the ratchet mechanisms; a light application of machine oil will keep the internal gears operating smoothly. The 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch square drives are compatible with standard industry extensions and adapters, allowing for easy expansion if specialized bits are needed in the future.
